Which Flexi Cap Funds are quietly increasing their bets on small-cap stocks?
We looked at the last 3 years of portfolio data, and these funds have significantly raised their small-cap exposure. 👇
The US10Y real rate is forming a symmetrical triangle on the weekly chart, approaching a potential breakout.
Real rates are one of the most important macro variables to monitor. They represent the return an investor actually receives after adjusting for inflation, making them the primary driver of capital allocation decisions across asset classes.
Something I cannot quite understand
Why people take losing trades personally
The markets don't know you. They have no idea who you are. They could care less what your hopes, fears and aspirations are. The markets are totally cold. Unfeeling
So why take a losing trade personally
Probably because you have misplaced assumptions and expectations. You assume the market cares about you enough to offer a profit. Your expectations are falsely placed
When I enter a trade I expect it to be a loser. I assume it will be a loser. This way I take risk management seriously
I know my trading stats. Over 200 trades I can come within a 10% on my estimate of ROR, win rate, PF, etc
But on any given trade or series of trades I do not have a clue. I may think I know where a market is going, but in reality I have no idea
So why would I take a loss personally. A trade is nothing more than a datum point in a series of data points subject to random probability theory. A loss is not a personal indictment
X is the best trading school I've found.
No tuition fee. No syllabus. Just real traders sharing what actually works — in real time.
I've spent years on this platform. These 5 accounts have genuinely made me a better trader.
Here's who they are — and the one post from each that's worth reading slowly 🧵
The market has been in the red.
But smart money (FIIs + DIIs) has quietly increased stakes in 28 companies over the last 4 quarters.
When they buy, you should take notice.
We didn’t stop there either. We filtered this list to 3 fundamentally strong picks.🧵👇
Do not think that having an entry signal means you have a strategy.
What a strategy needs 📝
・Where you enter
・Where you do not enter
・Where you accept the loss
・Where you take profit
・Where the scenario becomes invalid
・What information you look at
・What information you do not look at
・What size you use to repeat it
Only after these are defined can you accumulate samples under the same conditions.
Because samples accumulate under the same conditions, you can test the total sum of wins and losses that this behavior produces.
And you can confirm whether profit remains in the end.
If these are not defined, you will be creating the strategy on the spot during live trading every time.
The judgment you create on the spot will usually be pulled by the short term desire to avoid losing the trade in front of you or to get profit right now.
And it will destroy RR, expectancy, and consistency itself.
An entry signal is not a strategy.
It is only one condition for the entrance.
Only when every decision is defined can it be called a strategy.
Understand again what you truly need to do as a trader.

This is a text-book #symmetricaltriangle but I consider the boundaries as too steep for my liking. As I look for breakout entries, I want the initial breakout momentum to take the stock away from the pattern boundary. With immediate resistances at minor highs, the stock can find resistance and lose momentum.
No need to Like or Retweet or DM any handle for picking stocks.
Look for stocks within 20% of 52 Week highs - with other liquidity filters
Thank me later
A breakdown like this becomes very challenging for those of you who are trading the pattern breakdown/breakout with very tight stops. These end up categorized as Type 3 breakout/breakdown when they reach their price objective.
The pattern still keeps its integrity with its guidence on price objective but aggressive trade management could result in a failed trade.
Again: bearish pattern completion below the year-long average.
The future of trading won’t belong to the smartest traders.
It will belong to the most emotionally stable ones.
That sounds strange in an industry obsessed with intelligence, analysis, and prediction.
But after watching thousands of traders over time, one pattern becomes impossible to ignore:
Most people don’t lose because they lack knowledge.
They lose because modern trading environments quietly train self-destructive behaviour.
Constant stimulation.
Constant urgency.
Constant pressure to perform.
And eventually, traders stop making decisions from clarity.
They start making them from emotion.
That’s the hidden crisis nobody talks about.
The industry keeps trying to create better strategies…
while ignoring the psychological environments shaping the people using them.
But the next evolution of trading won’t come from indicators.
It will come from structure.
Environments that reward patience instead of over trading.
Systems that prioritise longevity over intensity.
Capital models designed around behavioural consistency not emotional pressure.
Because in the end, trading was never just a financial problem.
It was a human one.
And the firms that understand human behaviour deeper than everyone else…
will eventually reshape the entire industry.
Most people are still competing on execution.
The future will compete on emotional architecture.
And very few see that coming.

#SENSEX your bullish case is a higher low inside the rectangle.
Bearish case is a breakdown below 71,300.
Two possibilities I'm monitoring for next directional move.
I look for the stocks that are within 20% of their 52-week highs.
That keeps the question of RS rating away.
I am interested in all the stocks that are within 20% of their highs.
